NOTTINGHAM, MD—4e Brands North America is voluntarily recalling all lots of hand sanitizer brands to the consumer level. These products are being recalled due to the potential presence of methanol (wood alcohol).
Substantial methanol exposure could result in nausea, vomiting, headache, blurred vision, permanent blindness, seizures, coma, permanent damage to the nervous system or death. Although all persons using these products on their hands are at risk, young children who accidentally ingest these products and adolescents and adults who drink these products as an alcohol (ethanol) substitute, are most at risk for methanol poisoning.
These products are used as hand sanitizers and marketed to help decrease bacteria on the skin when soap and water are not available. This recall now includes all product manufactured by 4e within expiration, regardless of the size, UPC, or lot number. The recalled products are as follows:
